Altoholic

Version: 10.2.007

by: Thaoky [More]

Hi, my name is Thaoky, and I'm an Altoholic

Altoholic is an Ace 3 add-on written for people who dedicate most of their time to leveling alts, and who want to have as much information as possible in one place.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

I am back in the game since 28/12/2020.

If you are upgrading from a version below 9.0.003, YOU MUST CLEAR YOUR SAVED VARIABLES !!

This means cleaning the following files in \WTF\Account\<your_account>\SavedVariables : Altoholic.lua & All DataStore*.lua

About the add-on:

The add-on has been in development since December 2007 and was officially released in late March 2008. It provides you information about your alts (bags, mails, AH, etc...) without having to reconnect them all the time.

Supporting development:

You might not know this, but add-ons do not write themselves.
If you want to help development, or simply show your appreciation, use one of the following ways:

Making a Paypal donation here : [email protected]
Make a gift from my Amazon's wish list : https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls/3A2XOLZ09V2A8
Make an in-game donation (EU only : gold, BOE's, pets, mounts, ..) : Thaoky @ MarécagesDeZangar

About the author:

I was born in '76 (you do the math) and I work as a Project Manager + Software Architect + Full Stack Web Dev (yup, multiple hats) in a large multinational, so my coding time is limited, and Work > Gaming.

I live in Belgium, and obviously play on EU only.

Assistance will be provided on a best effort basis, but in any case always be polite and respectful when asking for help, I am neither a teenager, nor a punching ball. I am a cool guy with people who are cool with me. Respect that rule and we'll be fine.

Availability:

2020/12/28: I am back in the game.

Current Issues:

2020/12/28: Due to Teelo's actions, I have reverted his changes and resumed development based on my latest version of the code. Some of his new features are temporarily not available anymore, some are gone forever. The main Shadowlands features will be back though, just be patient.

Credits:

I'd like to thank my guild, Odysseüs on EU-Marécages de Zangar, for assisting me since the earliest phases, thanks guys for everything you've done
Thanks to the all the people who have supported the add-on since 2008, and also all those of you who came on board later.
Thanks to all the guys who have helped with code/translations/bug tracking.. and well, project support in general, especially during my long absences. Such projects can be long and tedious, it is good to not feel alone

Join the #altoholic IRC channel on Freenode : irc://irc.freenode.net:6667/

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR 8.0 : As with every new expansion, many things have changed in the API, and it is REQUIRED to clear your Saved Variables for the addon.
This means cleaning the following files in \WTF\Account\<your_account>\SavedVariables : Altoholic.lua & All DataStore*.lua

There WILL be bugs if you use your old files without cleaning them first.
Some fixes to work around API changes are too time consuming, so cleaning is required. A meagre price to pay once per expansion.

How to support Altoholic's development :

- Use the donate button either on Curse or on WoW Interface
- Support me on Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/Thaoky , the page is still being setup, it might take a few days before it can be used, I still need a banner.
- Make a gift from my amazon's wish list : http://amzn.eu/7xWdnbZ

If you like the addon, consider supporting it, this has been the long term effort and commitment of a single person. #OneManArmy

Re: Character Selection Drop Down

Originally posted by Meloric
One thing I've noticed different from earlier versions (as show also on the screenshots on this page),

At one time there was a drop down box to select a different character when viewing a character. That drop down box is now missing. The only drop down box is for selecting a different realm. The drop down box I'm referring to is shown in the Craftskills and Material screenshot picture.

Was this a change or just an oversight when the 4.0 versions became available. If possible I'd love to see that box back as it saves time when wishing to view a different character than the one currently being viewed.

The icons on the left (below the realm selection DDM) must be viewed as :

1st icon = character specific data
2nd & following icons : realm-wide views (all in one pets/mounts, factions, etc..)

If you click on the first icon, a new raw of icons appears at the top and lets you choose all that is character specific. Say you're looking at the bags, the mouse over the very first icon allows you to select another alt and keep the same pane visible (you'd go from viewing alt A's bags to alt B's bags).

I know it's a bit different than what it looked like before, but I needed space, and so shuffling the UI a bit was necessary.

Patch for recipe coloring with Auctioneer's CompactUI

I replaced AuctionFrameBrowse_UpdateHook() with the following and my testing with and without Auctioneer seems to be working just fine. I'd love it if this could be incorporated. Please redirect me if this should be posted elsewhere to make sure Thaoky sees it.

Thanks!

Code:

function AuctionFrameBrowse_UpdateHook()

	local AuctioneerCompactUI = false;

	Orig_AuctionFrameBrowse_Update()		-- Let default stuff happen first ..
	
	if addon:GetOption("UI.AHColorCoding") == 0 then return end
	
	if IsAddOnLoaded("Auctioneer") and Auctioneer.ScanManager.IsScanning() then return end;

	if IsAddOnLoaded("Auc-Advanced") then
		if AucAdvanced.Scan.IsScanning() then return end;
		if AucAdvanced.Settings.GetSetting("util.compactui.activated") then
			AuctioneerCompactUI = true;
		end
	end


	local offset = FauxScrollFrame_GetOffset(BrowseScrollFrame)
	local link
	for i = 1, NUM_BROWSE_TO_DISPLAY do			-- NUM_BROWSE_TO_DISPLAY = 8;
		local button = _G["BrowseButton"..i];
		local trueID = 0;
		-- Auctioneer Compatibility
		if (AuctioneerCompactUI and button:IsVisible()) then
			trueID = button.id;
		else
			trueID = button:GetID() + offset;
		end
		link = GetAuctionItemLink("list", trueID)
		if link then		-- if there's a valid item link in this slot ..
			local itemID = addon:GetIDFromLink(link)
			local _, _, _, _, _, itemType, itemSubType = GetItemInfo(itemID)
			if itemType == BI["Recipe"] and itemSubType ~= BI["Book"] then		-- is it a recipe ?
				
				local _, couldLearn, willLearn = addon:GetRecipeOwners(itemSubType, link, addon:GetRecipeLevel(link))
				local tex

				if (AuctioneerCompactUI) then
					tex = button.Icon;
				else
					tex = _G["BrowseButton" .. i .. "ItemIconTexture"]
				end

				if tex then
					if #couldLearn == 0 and #willLearn == 0 then	-- nobody could learn the recipe, neither now nor later : red
						tex:SetVertexColor(1, 0, 0)
					elseif #couldLearn > 0 then			-- at least 1 could learn it : green (priority over "will learn")
						tex:SetVertexColor(0, 1, 0)
					elseif #willLearn > 0 then			-- nobody could learn it now, but some could later : yellow
						tex:SetVertexColor(1, 1, 0)
					end
				end
			end
		end
	end
	AltoTooltip:Hide()
end

I used to be able to view 10 at a time, but now, I'm lucky to see 5 toons. I have deleted all of the Altoholic and Datastore variables several times but still can't see more than 2-5 after logging in all 10 from a realm. Last edited by gizmogeek : 12-01-10 at 06:35 PM.

Maximum you would need to do is to revisit each character, and open skills/touch bank and mailbox.

Indeed all's gone along quite smoothly now with it having a clean slate. Thanks once again.

Not sure why the other account would have affect on anothers files but hey, it worked

Thanks very much for your time and reply.

dorn A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 2 File comments: 14 Uploads: 0	First off love the addon as always! Don't know how I played WoW w/o it. I'm having some odd problems. I can't get the trade skill info to save. I've opened the windows and left them unfiltered etc. I just reinstalled too so the setup is very fresh with almost no addons running yet. The very few I have are like bartender/prat. Nothing that even deals with trade skills or storing info or anything. Also clicking the achieve tab generates this: ..rface\AddOns\Altoholic_Achievements\Achievements.lua:247: Achievement ID 1187 not found in GetAchievementInfo Clicking on any achieve categories does this: ...ce\AddOns\Altoholic_Achievements\TabAchievements.lua:70: attempt to index field 'Achievements' (a nil value) If you want anymore specific info just let me know.

Enabling all the Datastore & Altoholic modules prevents this error, but it shouldn't be necessary to have them all turned on IMHO. For example, I don't want to track quests, auctions, or mails.
